Hi y'all!
Firstly, I'm sorry for the delay in posting. We have some exciting things going on in our family & my sweet mother-in-law is here all week so we've been busy!
I'll start off with yesterday's recipes!
For breakfast -
"Tort-ill-eggs"
Pan fry some bacon or sausage in a skillet. We found some organic bacon st sprouts (Score!) so, keep your eyes peeled.
Cut up some corn tortillas into thin strips
Once your bacon/sausage is good & ready remove it from the pan. Leave your hot greasy pan there!
Put in your tortilla strips & FRYYY them! Crisps. Like, the crunchier the better.
Then, once they are all crispy, remove them into a small bowl on the side.
Beat 4 or more eggs to your liking & put a small dollop of butter in your pan (if needed) & pour your eggs in to scramble. Once they start to thicken, add in your crispie tortillas!
Finish up your eggs & serve with avocado & tomatoes. NOM.
Lunch:
Ham melts
So. Easy.
Piece of rye bread
Pile on ham
Put a slice of Swiss on top of ham
Put in oven set to broil until cheese is melty & awesome.
Add mayo/mustard (optional)
Nowwww for the main event!
David's dad makes some freaking AMAZING lasagna. He was here on Monday & i tried my best to learn the craft while he made it for us. I did my best to record the recipe & got some nice pictures! Let me know if you try it & how it comes out. All ingredients below are organic & purchased at sprouts.
Makes 2 pans (9in x 13in)
In a large pot coat bottom of the pan in olive oil.
Saute one large onion (cook until soft)
Most of a bulb of garlic (about a cup)
Add Italian sausage & Ground beef (let it mostly brown)
Tomatoes (Canned chunky tomato sauce)
Continue to heat for awhile
Add about a cup FRESH finely diced parsley
⅓ cup of FRESH diced oregano
¼ cup of FRESH basil
continue to simmer sauce for three hours (very low simmer)
Get a large bowl to mix cheese
16 oz of freshly grated mozzarella
16 oz of ricotta
24 oz of cottage cheese
¾ cup of finely grated parmesan
¼ cup of freshly chopped parsley
Mix well
Boil water in large pot
Add pasta (make according to box’s directions)
Add “thin sauce” (fatty water base from top of sauce pot) to base of baking pan then layer pasta, sauce, cheese, three layers deep and three across.
On the very top sprinkle on a little bit of parmesan to create a “crust” on top.
Bake at 350 for about 40 mintues.
Y'all it's life changing good! Plus, it freezes well & is soooo good for leftovers!
So, hopefully this helps y'all get an idea for how our kitchen works!
In personal news-
Thank you!!! For all your love & support from my last post. I have loved hearing your stories & opinions. We are really praying about our adoption & I'm excited to see where God is taking us.
Oh, I cut 7 inches off my hair today. And I feel about 300 pounds lighter. Whew.
Harper's Daddy reads her "Brown Bear Brown Bear" about a billion times a day. Every time she puts her little feet on his & lays her head on his knee. I just can't even handle the sweetness! Daddy's girl, for sure.
Ooooookay, I am headed to bed, but stay tuned for some pretty amazing & exciting news, soon!
In His hand,
Hallye Jaye
